Nothing from AT&T about my 64GB Space Gray Air 2. I don't think anyone has seen any movement with them. At least you have those dates. I ordered in store in the afternoon of the 17 and have 11/3-11/7......
Got a tip for us?

Mine is shipped via UPS and shows origin scan at 9:19pm. UPS also shows a delivery day of Monday by end of day. I had it shipped to work so I wouldn't have to worry about being home but I now wonder if they sent it a slower way thinking a business is not as excited about getting them on release day so they sent it a slower way instead of next day fedex like they did when I ordered my ipad3. I was hoping to get it on release day. Maybe the delivery day will be bumped up? I think I recall seeing that on the iPad 3 release but I don't remember.
Has anyone else had their status changed to "shipped", but not have the charge show up on their credit card statement yet?
I ordered day 1, 64gb gold, from Apple Store. Almost immediately the charge showed up in the "pending" section of my Capital One card. A few days later, it disappeared.
Item was shipped today (hey, I got PRIORITY overnight (10:30 AM)!), and as of right now there still is no charge of any sort on my credit card.
Not complaining, btw...
Same thing happened to my AMEX card. I am sure Apple will charge me soon. The pending charge may have been pending for too long and the credit card companies took it off. I expect to see it charged tomorrow when I wake up. I also have a delivery time of 10:30 AM. I just got my iPhone 6 Plus a few days ago and have not even had time to activate it yet. Guess this will be a big Apple weekend for me, getting the iPad and iPhone up and running.
Another way to think about it:
You'll reminisce about waiting for your iPad Air 2 as a memorable part fun - part anguish - part water drip tortuous time.
This is one of the amazing things about Apple: They create products that do this to people - get us all worked up and agonized while we wait for the shipments.
I absolutely have been thrilled happy to get certain tech products before. But I never came close to wanting to track every single movement of the package, the plane carrying my package, the driver carrying my package before it arrives.
Pre-Ordered a 128GB Space Gray WiFi+Cell from AT&T Store in person
Ordered mine on the 10/21 in-store at 4:45 and shipping shows as being 10/27-10/31.
Just showing as scheduled to ship.
I dunno why Apple stockpiles these things regionally. The end up at the shiper's hub anyways. Mine went Harrisburg-Memphis-(presumably)Newark for delivery in Newark. Just like my iPhone 6 with UPS. It went Harrisburg-Louisville-Newark. I don't really care cause I'll still get it tomorrow, but seems silly since Apple has a warehouse in the Memphis area.
it shows it will be delivered by 8:00 pm tomorrow. (i'm located at NYC)...
check this out-
10:15 pm Arrived at FedEx location MEMPHIS, TN
9:00 pm Left FedEx origin facility HARRISBURG, PA
2:28 pm Picked up MIDDLETOWN, PA
12:48 pm Shipment information sent to FedEx
why do they need to fly it over to TN? ...why not just drive it from PA to NY? lol...

Same thing happened to mine! In fact, I think our iPads must have been in the same plane from Harrisburg to Memphis. And yes, why not drive them from PA to NY? I understand that Memphis is a hub, but still... It just boggles the mind!
Did anyone order through Verizon?
I ordered late in the day on pre order day from Verizon and my ship date has been steady October 31. My card has not yet been charged.

Mine shows the same. Did you by chance ship yours to a business address (by selecting a business name)?
I have a feeling these will update sometime overnight and change to delivery Friday. I have seen UPS estimates change while in route. It might be just an estimate based on where it is shipping from not taking into account that there might be some kind of rush on these packages.
Still preparing to ship, now out of the 4 day "will ship in" window and into the "delivery" date window.
Well mine is definitely coming Monday and not today. I am a little dusapointed that they didn't overnight mine like the others. I really think it is because I am having it delivered to a business address.

Delayed by several days
When I placed my order on the 18th for Space Gray, 128, LTE, I got an email saying it would 4-6 business days, and delivery 10/23-10/29. I ordered a gold with same specs same day.
As of 10/24, the gold one is getting ready to ship with a delivery of 10/24-27. The gray one changed to 10/31-11/4, and the order is still processing.

Sounds like the Space Gray of that model is causing the delay. There are at least 3 of us with the same specs and revised delivery dates.
Woke up this morning to the sight and smell of Preparing to Ship! Oh wait, that's the same status that it's been at for a week now!
Mine's in Seattle now. Looks like it didn't get a direct flight from Ontario - had to change planes in Oakland overnight.
Omg dude mine now says "Preparing to Ship!"
I want to thank my mom, Jesus, my hamster "Chodester" from when I was a kid (he was a good pet), and of course myself for making this glorious moment happen. I can't tell you all how excited I am to finally have my iPad in the SAME status it's been since the day after I ordered it. Also thank you American Telephone & Telegraph for making this all happen.
